Comment: Took this for a tooth infection before and after a root canal. Started on 02/12. Finished on 02/20.

Comment:Took this for a tooth infection before and after a root canal. Started on 02/12. Finished on 02/20. Today is 03/05, and I am taking a second antibiotic to try to relieve the diarrhea caused by the Clindamycin. I still have symptoms, but at least it's not daily like it was in the beginning. I have had several root canals in my life and took antibiotics for the infection; last time was 7 years ago. I expected a slight upset stomach, but nothing like this. I'm also EXHAUSTED, despite the fact that I sleep well every night. Had to turn in a stool sample to the doctor to see if I have C-Diff; she started me on the 2nd round of antibiotics just in case. Needless to say, I will never take this again. It's so uncomfortable.Hide Full Comment

Comment: Went to Endodontist in extreme pain, bad infection. Was given this medicine to take three times a day. First day was fine but by the second day I was belching, had stomach pains and gas as well as loose bowels. Not sure if to continue or stop this med. Seeing it's the weekend the office is closed. I'm taking one more dose it my stomach gets worse I'm not taking it anymore.
